    Left turns are bad news for everyone... both the person making the turn and the person coming the other way.

    I will admit, the one thing that really does spook me is a car facing me with a left turn signal on.
    My other half asked me about this over breakfast. I told her "You see all those headlights on the front of my Harley? Thats why I ride with them all on".

    I looked up where it happened. Looks like a nice semi country/rural road. Nice riding area it seems.

    I had a motorcycle accident in Vermont too. I was only 14 at the time, and it was also the last time I rode a motorcycle. I like to be surrounded by steel in a world trying to kill me.

    I hope that line doesn't fall in the "Famous Last Words" category...

    I have been riding for 52 years. If I am killed tomorrow I'll have a smile on my lips. Its been a great ride.

    There are no Mulligans. Better do life right the first time.

    Definitely sad, I never met him but know a lot of people who did and never heard a bad word about him truly a down to earth, nice guy by all accounts.
    The road the accident happened on, route 30, is a two lane road but the area the accident happened in is a high traffic area. From the police report it sounds like he never had a chance the element just pulled right out in front of him.
